Assessment of Educational Effect of Home-made Robotic Surgery Simulator for Novice Robotic Surgeons

To overcome the obstacles of endoscopic surgery, the da vinci surgical robot system was applied to the various surgery area . And the complete understanding and practice of the robotic system is very important condition for successful robotic surgery.

Investigator developed a home made robotic surgery simulator for novice robotic surgeons. And investigator want to study about the ability of home made robotic surgery simulator versus existing robotic simulation system.

Treatment and study plan

existed simulation system user

Procedure

Investigator will divide the subject by the two groups. Each group will take about 15 minutes for exercising drive robotic surgery instrument by each simulation system. After 15 minutes, both group will take an short exam to check the ability to manage the robotic surgery instrument.
